South Korea’s Ministry of Culture has proposed new regulations aimed at improving the welfare of K-pop artists, following growing criticism of the industry’s treatment of young performers.
The reforms include limits on trainee contracts, mandatory mental health support, and fairer revenue-sharing models between agencies and artists.
Fans worldwide have welcomed the move, especially after recent high-profile cases of burnout among idols. Analysts say the changes could reshape the global K-pop market, ensuring long-term sustainability while protecting its stars.
